The number of hydrogen bonds formed by a water molecule at normal conditions is
- A 1
- B 2
- C 3
- D 4
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) 4
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Water is unique because its oxygen atom has two lone pairs and two hydrogen atoms, meaning that the total number of bonds of a water molecule is up to four. The number of hydrogen bonds formed by a molecule of liquid water fluctuates with time and temperature. From liquid water…
